Default Nitrous'ed B18C1

I've been reading this thread: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1402083
and i am suddenly very interested in juicing by b18c1 swapped hatch. i've been looking at these upgrades:


o ZEX Dry Nitrous Kit (# 82011)
-$529.99 (http://www.prostreetonline.com)

o ZEX Hyperformance Spark Plugs (Set of 4)
-$20.37 (http://www.zex.com)

o ZEX Booster Fuel Pump Kit
-$191.20 (http://www.zex.com)

o MSD RPM Activated Window Switch
-$85.88 (http://www.store.summitracing.com)

Do you think that once these items are all installed i will be running a safe and powerful setup? (i'll prolly run a 65 shot) this is my daily driver, i should mention, and reliability is of utmost importance. it needs to run just as good all motor as it does while on the spray. anything else i should consider, or do u think this will run strong as is?

ditch the plugs and the pump, get NGK`s and a Walboro HP pump for half the price

zex wouldn't be my first reccomendation ..

I would go with a standard wet or direct port kit as stated above, there's alot of good kits out there, nx, cold fusion, etc.. harrisspeedworks.com sells alot of nitrous kits and you might want to call them and get an idea about the difference in the kits.

UPDATE:

I've decided on this setup based on the reccomendations i've gotten and the depth of my pockets:

-NOS Competition Cheater System. URL > http://prostreetonline.com/buy...tems/
-Walbro Fuel pump. (255 Liters Per Hour - High Pressure)
-MSD RPM Activated Window Switch.
-NGK Plugs.

My only question is, which NGK Plugs should i get? i am gonna use the 75 shot, if that makes a difference.

NGK 5238 or NGK 5820. Also with that system, you can remove the secondary butterfly ports if you wanted to. Otherwise you could go with the NOS-5123 which is just a single nozzle wet kit, and that would aid you in the ease of installation and changing of jets is a little easier. With that plate system, the fuel jet is on one end and the nitrous jet is on the other end. Sometimes making it a bear to get to when the engine is hot.

75 shot on a stock motor is going to hurt.

Not if it is done right. Most nitrous problems stem from lack of knowledge. You can spray a lot more than you would think if it is tuned right and even more if you use a progressive controller. The two biggest issues with nitrous are going lean and the shock from the initial hit. Tuning fixes the first and progressive systems fix the second.

If you have questions about nitrous, ask a redneck - spraying is the pinacle of cracker engineering.

its a wet shot thats injected directly into the intake manifold, not the intake pipe so it should be fine if i have enough fuel to back it up.
